Education

I have a BA in Classics (from Truman State University), an MA in Latin (from UNC-Chapel Hill), and a PhD in Classics (from Rutgers University).

Experience

For the past 14 years I have taught and tutored Latin, writing courses, history courses, and ancient Greek courses of all levels and to a wide range of students, from high school to graduate students. For the past year I have tutored test preparation for the ACT and SAT, Reading and English sections.

I enjoy teaching and take special delight in helping students reach that moment where they say 'aha! Now I get it!' I feel that the current method of instruction in America prevents many students from reaching their full academic potential and that individualized instruction is the best way to help students achieve their best in class, on tests, or on homework.

Hobbies

I enjoy reading, writing, cooking, traveling, and playing with my 6-year old son, Max.
